Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide

This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

I'd greatly appreciate if anyone could help me out with this problem. I've been finding similar threads but not anything that really answers my question.

I tried to install wine from source (20041019). I had some problems and attempted to uninstall with "make uninstall". That seemingly worked fine. I then noticed that I had 20040714 installed all along (or at least I think I had). I uninstalled that with dpkg --remove. And now I seem to be stuck with an unclean uninstall. When I write "wine", I get the following message

Code:

bash: /usr/bin/wine: No such file or directory

instead of the more familiar

Code:

bash: asd: command not found

Is there a way to make a proper uninstall? Who is telling bash to look in /usr/bin when I just write wine and have everything seemingly uninstalled?

-->#locate wine > wine.txt
open wine.txt
and see all the directories where wine is like /etc/wine , /usr/lib/wine,/usr/share/wine-c (or) what ever .. just rename them Do Not delete.. once u get wine working u can delete them.....
